Story
At UW–River Falls, leadership begins long before graduation.
It begins when a student stays late in the lab to finish a research project.
When a first-generation student finds the confidence to present their work.
When a faculty mentor encourages curiosity, resilience, and courage.
These moments define the River Falls experience. They are the moments that transform students into the leaders our communities, industries, and world need most.
But opportunity doesn’t happen by chance. It happens because people believe in students and invest in their potential.
That’s where the UWRF Impact Fund makes a difference.
The Impact Fund provides unrestricted support—the most powerful and flexible way to give. It allows the university to respond quickly to emerging needs, support innovative ideas, and create meaningful opportunities for students across campus.
"Giving Days show what makes the Falcon community so special. When alumni and friends come together to support students, the impact is immediate and lasting." — Rick Foy, Assistant Chancellor for University Advancement
Your Gift could Help Support:
- Launch student research and hands-on learning experiences
- Provide resources that strengthen academic programs
- Support campus initiatives that enhance the student experience
- Help students stay on track when unexpected challenges arise
When Falcons give to the Impact Fund, they are doing more than making a donation. They are helping create the environment where students grow into confident leaders.
